Except for the graphical designer and Advertising Coordinator there is no concrete compensation but it's fun and the recognition is great. We also occasionally receive pro deals for people who are actively contributing.

** disclaimer **

Please be 100% aware that these are simply volunteer roles with no entitlement or compensation. Do not participate if the expectation is anything more than your own satisfaction or recognition in the community or industry.

For example:
Authors get published and promote their aspirations, but there is no payment
Moderators stand out as key members and qualify as key industry individuals (read: discounts) but there is no actual pay

Advertising coordinators and graphical designers:
Advertising coordinator generates sponsorships, renewals, and is a key role rewarded by one fly rod per year from a sponsor whose value is relative to his/her yield in advertisements
Graphics Designers build banner ads and receive a portion of the advertising fees for their work from the sponsor

If you or another member is interested in getting involved, send a PM to me and we'll discuss. Decisions will be made between now and January 2005.

I'm sure the descriptions were less than complimentary about these roles but I am not trying to sell anything here - if there is a genuine interest, and you can find your own satisfaction from getting involved, then I'd like to hear from you by PM.
